Care of prisoners of war.
The picture is new in any of the days when the fieldhospital treated and cared for patients who were Iraqi prisoners of war. In the inflatable tent stands on both sides of rows simple hospital beds. The patients' dark hair defines the picture in its entirety. Handle, urinal bottle, everything is authentic. In the foreground is a nurse who is dressed in army kamouflage truosers. On her feet, she has military boots. In contrast to the bellicose garments she bears a white hospital singlet. In the background you can see an assistant who has a stethoscopes around the neck. She was, then the picture outlined, employed to carry out checks of bloodpressure in patients. Unfortunately, the names of the nurses are not recorded. Most of the medical staff had their jobs in any hospital in Sweden. The change to work in a field hospital was radical.
The white strings as a glimpse of the roof is drums, which was approximately vital in the heat, then led the cool air.
The picture can be found in the book "Desert BLUES" a book about Swedish General Hospital in Saudi Arabia (1991 Niklas Ekdal and Jonas Ekströmer).
